Anyone else here have a wacky sleep schedule?
Mine was completely thrown off when I was home visiting family, and now it is almost twelve hours off. Instead of going to sleep at say, 10pm, I go to sleep at 10AM. I am not tired AT ALL until then.
I've tried relaxation exercises, meditation, herbal teas, you name it. I don't consume caffeine on a regular basis, maybe one a week. My sugar intake is limited to my breakfast cereal. I've even loaded up on 'sleepy' foods (warm soups, etc) right before 'bedtime' to coax my body to sleep, but nothing.
I don't want to try sleeping pills. I hate what they do to me, and they cause my GI tract to do jumping jacks, waking me up anyway so I can sit on the toilet for half an hour.
Ideas?

The best advice I can give is to try to change it bit by bit. Wake up an hour (or two) earlier than you normally would so that you pass out a bit earlier and go from there.
